Kensington Yards is inspired by its place in the fabric of Philadelphia.

In this space over a century ago, artisans came to find materials – in the stone and lumber yards that once occupied the site – that form the city we know today. That interplay of design and history, of character and heritage, shapes this new community and so much of the amazing, emerging neighborhood of Kensington.

Developer Alejandro Franqui of Solo Real Estate, along with the architects at Bright Common, landscape designers at Apiary and master builders Red Oak Construction, have created residences that reflect this balance in a way that is at once forward-thinking yet respectful of the past, urban yet intimate.
